# MOS 6510 CPU
Source: https://www.c64-wiki.com/wiki/MOS_Technology_6510
## Identification
- Chip Name: MOS 6510
- Clock Speed: 0.985 MHz (PAL), 1.023 MHz (NTSC)
- Manufacturer: MOS Technologies
- Designer: Commodore Semiconductor Group
- Board: Commodore 64, Commodore 128
- Socket: C64 U7, C64G U6, C128 U6
- Released: 1982, Discontinued: 1994
- Package: DIP-40
- Datasheet: http://archive.6502.org/datasheets/mos_6510_mpu.pdf
## Description
The MOS 6510 works on the mainboard of a C64 as the CPU. The 6510 is a modified version of the MOS 6502, distinguished primarily by the addition of an 8-bit general-purpose I/O port. In the most common implementation, six of these I/O pins are available. The chip also introduces support for tri-state operation on the address bus and allows the CPU to be halted cleanly.
